In this study, the draft genome of sp. strain ENV425 was determined. The propane-grown strain ENV425 cometabolically degrades environmental contaminants such as methyl -butyl ether and -nitrosodimethylamine. The sequence revealed the presence of multiple hydrocarbon metabolic genes that could play pivotal roles in the biodegradation of pollutants.
在本研究中,确定了sp. 菌株ENV425的基因组草图。以丙烷为生长底物的菌株ENV425通过共代谢作用降解环境污染物,如甲基丁基醚和二甲基亚硝胺。该序列显示存在多个可能在污染物生物降解中起关键作用的碳氢化合物代谢基因。
